Hardships a Woiuau Was Forced to With stand In the Karly Days. Cade Itogeis writes another chapter of what he saw wheu ho was lighting tbe Indians in Nebraska, as follows: Mrs. Kelly speaks of many long night marches atid the faligueiug tasks she had to perform while the Indiana were eseapiug with her a captive. She was compelled to le;id one and ride an other fractious horse, and also carry the chiefs euo and large stone pipe. In some manner she dropped the pipe and it was broken to pieces. Sne left it lay there, but in the morning when these facts were learned her life would have been dispaired of had she not been the possessor of $120, wnich 6he gave up. But they decided tli.tl for this offease tome punishment must be placed upon her. Fur this purpose firebrands were ued. fiotu which she suffered for hours by those chunks oi fire being attached to her tender flesh Sho almost constantly prayed to God to relieve her from these tortures by death. After getting to their home in the liiir lloru country, sne was then put to daily work such as carry ing water and wood, scraping the willow bush, drying aud sacking up for their smoking purposes. I was a memner of the Sixth Iowa cavalry, and put in three long years battling with the Sioux. Sometimes we were attacked by numbers many times larger than our small band of coldiers. Late in the fall of '04 wo had a continuous fight of three days with twenty thousand Indians as we marched through the Bad Lands. W: :ie there others and myself saw the trock of a white woman in the s.ind. We knew nothing of her capture by the Indians, and after wo lost a few men and hundreds of horses, which mostly perished for want of water and food, and after leaving the Bad Land covered with good Indians dead we then camped upon tho banks of the Yellowstone river. After a few days rest we resumed our way to the lower forts on the Missouri river for the winter. In my next I will tell you of the discovery of Mrs. Kelly aud the man ner in which correspondence was car ried on between her and Captain Kisk. They Were I'nsucceHsful. The following telegram from Elm wood appeared in the morning papers: Yesterday while the Union Lumber company's office force were all at din ner, some one entered the back door of the office and tried to get the con tents of the cash drawer with a skele ton key, but failed as they broke the key off in the lock and then became frightened and left without making any further effort. Tomorrow the annual side hunt will talce place, and there will be a lively contest between nimrods. . This hunt is captained this year by a barber and butcher. Tuesday, while Rev. Turrell of the M. E. church and E. T. Comer were out hunting, they became separated and Comer Ehot at a bunch of quails not knowing that Turrell was opposite him. A stray shot struck Iiev. Tur rell on the eye brow and bruised it, but luckily the shot did no more dam age than that. W. T. Alien Acquitted. Readers of The News will remem ber the shooting affray which oc curred in Ashland last October when W. T. Allen, who is well known in this city, made an assault on A. B. Fulier of that plice. He was placed under arrest and has since languished in the ccunty jail at Wahoo. Trial of the case was begun before , Christmas and was not finished until last evening, when the jury returned a verdict of acquittal. The defense did not deny the shoot ing, but pleaded insanity. During the progress of the trial he did not appear to take any interest in it. outcome and slept the most of the time. Wo Mast Have Money.

A Long List From Rubber Bands to Sur gical Supplies An Interesting Descrip tion or How Bulbs For Syringes and Atomizers Are Made. Rubber is one of the most staple and oseful articles id modern use. There are but few uses to which tho wonderful product cannot be put It can be made as pliable as putty or as bard as wood, and is just as adapted for use as a hair pin as for a golf ball or a waterproof jacket Few people, however, are as fa miliar with the process of manufacture as with the product itself. The larger part of our rubber goods comes from Brazil, which is tho great est rubber producing country in the world. Here, of course, rubber workers handle their clastic material with an ease and celerity which is a revelation to the man who has w asted the greater part of a forenoon trying to mend a hole in his punctur?d tire. Although the larger part of rubber manufacturing is done by machinery there is still consid erable done by hand. In making np goods for druggists, stationers and sur gical supplies the best grades of Para rubber, the best in the world, are gen erally used. The ordinary commercial rubber is gray, but its coloring is an easy matter. This is done by mechanically mixing with the rubber, after it is washed and dried, different kinds of pigments ox ide of zino for white, lampblack for black, golden sulphuret of antimony for yellow and vermilion for red. The rub ber mixwl with the pigment is run through heavy steam heated rollers into thin sheets. The making of rubber bands is a sim ple prccoss. Thin 6heets of pure gum are rapped around a form until it is shaped into a flat tube of the required thicknQss. This tube is then vulcanized, when it is shipped off the form and run through a machine, which cuts it cross wise into strips. Rubber erasers contain finely pow dered pumice stone or emery dust. The abrasive materials are mixed with the rubber mechanically, which is then molded irio shape and vulcanized un der steam heat One of the most interesting processes in tbe manufacture of rubber goods is that of bulbs. Long buibs, such as syr inges and atomizers, are madofrom two pieces of rubber, but round bulbs, such as pumps and balls, aro made from three pieces. For cutting tho rubber aunc or galvanized iron patterns are used. Considerable care is necessary in this, as the strength of the seam de pends upon the smooth fitting of the edges. The threo parts for hollow balls may, however, be cut with a die. If ihe bulb has a neck, small pegs of iron ara first prepared by being cemented and wound with strips of rubber as a nu cleus. . After tho rubber is cut into the proper parts it is then brushed with cement the whole length of the skived edges and thoroughly heated. The bulbmaker then takes the softened rubber, and tak ing a prepared peg places the neck on one piece on oi:e fide of tho rubber core and another i:cck piece on the op posite side, then presses them firmly to gether, and, rolling the whole tube shaped piece between thumb and fore finger, has finished the neck of the bulb. The next process is that of knitting the edges which form the seam. This is done by holding the finished neck to ward the operator in his left hand, while with the thumb and forefinger of the right he pinches the edges firmly together for nearly the whole distance around. Into the side aperture, which is left open, is poured a little water or liquid ammonia. The opening is then made still smaller, aud as a final touch the maker puts his lips to the orifice and bl ows full and hard into the bulb. The softened rubber under this pressure ex pands, the flattened shape is lost in a fuller and more rounded outline, while the operator, with a quick nip of his teeth, closes the opening, the imprisoned air and water holding the sides apart in symmetrical corpulency. The partly made bulb is now passed on to the turners, who, armed with scis sors with curved blades, carefully circle the seams, cutting away all unevenness, till the whole exterior is ready for the mold. The bulbs, as soon as they leave the trimmers' hands, are laid in shallow pans filled with chalk. When taken from here, they are carefully dusted with talc, so that the rubber will not adhere to the inside of the mold. A mold worker then takes one-half of the mold in his left hand and with his right gently forces a bulb into it, capping it with the second half. Each bulb, if the pattern worker is skillful, will fit its mold; otherwise the finished bulb is apt to be imperfect. The molds are run upon small tracks into tbe vnlcanizer. After they have been cured a sufficient time the vulcan izers are opened and the cans are run under an ordinary shower bath, which quickly cools them. They are then un keyed, the molds twisted open and the bulbs taken out. If the work be well done, the swelling of the liquid within its rubber prison has exerted so intense a force that every line and letter within the mold is reproduced upon the outside of the bulb, while the sulphur, combin ing with the heat, accomplishes the vulcanization. The final process takes place in the cylinder rct.ni, where in slowly revolv ing tumbling barrels the bulb undergoes a thorough scouring. When taken out of the cylinders, the dirty yellow color which the Lulbs bore on leaving the mold has disappeared, and they are now smooth, white and finished. The neck being cut cil the required length, the bulb is ready for market or for the vari ous fittings w hich accompany it as ad juncts to the syringe or atomizer. Rochester Union and Advertiser.
